Y'all Ready for Windows 10?

[DHK]

I ran Windows 8 for a while and used the Start8 program.

I went back to Windows 7 after installing some SQL 2005 dependent software (Assurity disconnect mode) and it wasn't compatible. Now that everything I'm using is running SQL 2008, it shouldn't be a problem to upgrade.

I used to hear horror stories about Win 8. After a day or so, I had it set up pretty much like 7 anyway.

Yes, I don't get the hatred of 8.1. It pretty much runs like 7 now, with a few improvements.

How about doing a shutdown and going to the side panel to find the power-button to do it?

Maybe that was fixed in 8.1, but it sure was stupid.

Because it is the cool thing to say.....

WOW a 3GB download. That seems pretty bloated.

With a 10GB cap from Comcast and 4 PCs to upgrade - sounds like I will be paying Comcast extra in August.

You have a 10GB cap from Comcast??? is that something they stuck you with for a discount?

And it's not "up to" that's my actual speed. Goodbye Comcast!!!

Would love some of that bandwidth!

Nope. Because it is bloated software that has less technical functionality when it comes to internal settings/functions. Not to mention the fact that very few of the previous windows functions were in the same place or even existed at all. From a ux standpoint it is awful. If all you do is surf the web then its fine... but there is a reason they are rolling out a new version so soon... and its not because of the cool people.

I only have 1 computer on Windoze now. Every once in a while I need to use FF or IE on a site but most of the time Chrome works just fine.

Have a Chromebox and 2 Chromebooks. Latest Chromebook is the new 15". Super fast. Boots in seconds. Love Chrome OS.
